Nemesis Facility: 'Danger Room'


Stargaizer

Recommended Posts

  • 2 weeks later...

Draygo lead them into the 'training room', which was a very large room, but completely empty. Except for Morph, that is. He was standing in the center of the room waiting for everyone. He nodded as everybody as they entered. "Hey guys. Draygo, I thought you guys'd never finish breakfast; what, did you order two cows this morning?" The last was obviously some kind of inside joke... or maybe not, maybe Morph just thought if funny.

Draygo walked in and stood beside Morph, so that it was the two of them facing the three 'newcomers'. The door shut on it's own, and Draygo began explaining their first 'test'. "Ok guys, this is how the first test works. We have found that the best way to grasp and find your powers is to be in a life or death situation. So, this is how this is going to work, we're going to have a spar, and it's going to be full-powers, meaning that you guys don't have to hold back. Use whatever it is that you think you can to get the upper-hand on us. And don't worry about the room," and with that Draygo held open a taloned hand, and a ball of green energy formed in it. It grew for a few seconds, until it was the size of his head, and then he pointed his entire arm at the wall. The green ball of energy crackled and sped away from his hand towards the wall, where it hit and disapated into some sort of 'shield', thus leaving the wall completely unharmed.

He then turned and looked at the group. "This room has been specifically designed to be unharmed by any use of our powers, thus making it completely safe for us to use them here. Now, is there anything I'm missing?" He looked around, then to Morph, who shook his head. Morph seemed to actually have settled down in anticipation.

Then Draygo realized what was missing, and with snap of his taloned fingers, the wall was 'magically' lined with stands of weapons. Every single Hand-to-Hand weapon imaginable, from every time period was represented, as well as a perfectly proportioned staff laying at William's feet. "So, anybody have any questions before we start?"

Will picked up his 'staff' and made a few clumsy moves with it, then bore down and got the hang of it and went through a warm up routine that bespoke extensive professional training. Then he frowned, gritted his teeth, and the staff actually caught fire. "Glowing broom" didn't seem like a good description.

He said, "Now you're sure we don't need to hold back?"

(Assuming Draygo answers "yes" Will swings on him with the staff.)

Violet looked a bit lost and somewhat impressed by Will's display of Martial Arts. I've got nothing like that up my sleeves.

"Are we supposed to fight you two or eachother?"

Whatever the answer would be, Violet decided to take on something akin to a combat stance. Her eyes kept focused on Draygo as she tried to concentrate. If they were supposed to fight them she'd try to take Draygo out of the combat by controlling his mind.

Morph looked to be somewhere between embarrassed and non-plussed. He eyed the two woman, now that it was obvious that the two macho types would be going at at. He did answer Violet though, before Draygo got around to it, "It's the two of us versus you three." Into the following pregnant pause, the smallish mutant shrugged ... and shrank out of sight!

Be it her sheer speed, or her keen eyes and well trained movements, Alexandra was able to spot and 'capture' the dragonfly with ease. Question now was, what was she going to do with it?

Of a little ways to the side, noticing that the spar had already started, and slightly startled by this, Draygo quickly extends his arm towards William, a much smaller ball of green, writhing energy sped towards him. Not able to move out of the way in time, it hit him square in the chest, knocking a bit of the wind out of him with the force, which was somewhat unexpected. However, besides that, it didn't seem to have done any damage to him or his clothes.

Didn't even hurt.

Flaming staff in hand, now it was William's turn to 'try out his abilities'...

Will had taken plenty of hits before, the key was to keep moving. Rather than fight it he rolled with the force of the green ball's impact and let it spin him around. On the return he extended the burning staff...

Draygo was able to move out of the way slightly, but no where near completely. The staff hit him solidly in the side, the 'flames' licked up his side, but it hardly seemed to faze him. Once the staff finished it's contact, there was a slight scorch mark on Draygo's scales, but no other signs that William had even hit him besides that.

Suddenly the dragonfly in Alex's hand becomes ... goopy. She barely has time to consider on whether or not she's crushed Morph than the goop begins to ooze out of her fingers and down her arms. As it does this, the pressure on her hands expands exponentially. The rivlets of goo become tendrils and the goop begins getting a slick, wet feel. She can feel pulses of ... something pass around her failing hold on Morph.

Then one of the tendrils sprouts a sucker and the female athelete has to stifle the urge to scream out at the alienish of it all. She drops hold of the majority of the goo as it has become too heavy for hold with her outstretched hands. She sees one large eye staring back at her as she drops some of the reforming matter to the ground. The tendrils become tentecles as they slither around her legs as if to trap her. Another eye pops out and the transformation is complete. Alley is facing a Giant, and I mean GIANT, Octopus.

Things were going too fast for Violet. She didn't know whom to help first. Then Morph suddenly changed into a giant Squid - a Squid!

Violet was completely grossed out by the sight of him changing that her next step was a matter of natural selection - she decided to help Will and attack Draygo... somehow. But how?

Then she had an idea... she wasn't sure it would work but trying was knowing.

Violet closed her eyes trying to hold Draygo in place and then gently lift him up through sheer will of mind. She didn't know how to attack him, but she could try to render him immobile. Then Will could beat the crap out of him.

Click to reveal..
Using Telekinesis on Draygo to lift him up slightly, still within Will's range of attack, but turning Draygo away from them to avoid getting hit by any of those nasty green blasts. The Rules don't state a roll... so I don't know what to do. I've got 2 Ranks of TK and would spent a powerpoint to make it happen if he is too heavy.

Pushing TK from rank 2 to 3, taking 1HL of dmg = Bruised (0) Effect will last until she releases Draygo or he breaks it. Then she will be helpless for 2 rounds (shock/exertion).

TK --> 9d10.hits(6) -- [1,6,8,6,3,4,5,9,1] = 2sux

Violet could feel her telekinesis reaching out and grabbing ahold of Draygo; but he wasn't moving. Samantha cheered her on from the background. Come on Vi, you can do it!

It took all of her concentration, and she actually had to draw on reservs of strenth that she didn't even know she had, but she was actually able to get Draygo airborne. And once he was, it was a simple matter to turn him around so that they were staring as his tail and wings. If it were possible for him to twist around, it would definately be very difficult for him to get a shot off at anybody now.

The rest of the people in the training room, if they happened to look, would notice a deep furrow of concentration marring Violet's otherwise perfect face, and a rivulet of blood running out of the left side of her nose.

GROSS GROSS GROSS! Her mind screamed as Morph became an Octopus and then grappled with her. I've got to get away. That thought courses through her as she struggles to get away, and goes so far as to start rising into the air quickly in attempt to put som distance between herself and Morph.

It was a slow start, but after a moment of gaining momentum and lifting Morph's tenticle off the ground, Alexandra bolted straight upwards. Be it a combination of her speed and strength, or just sheer luck, she was just barely able to slip free. And, while Alexandra, herself, was none the worse for wear (besides maybe a little frazzled and grossed out), her clothes showed the wear of being forcefully removed from a giant suction cup.

Once Draygo realized that he was no longer in control of the altitude of his body, he extended his wings and gave a powerful thrust upwords, trying his best to break free of Violet's grasp.

This time when William connected his staff with Draygo's body, he actually felt a little give. Finally William was able to hurt the great Draygo. There was still some scorching where William's staff had connected with Draygo's scales, but this time the scales didn't bounce back quite as much as they did last time.

Alley was flying and seemed capable of dodging flaying tenticles, but ... the two love birds had grouped close together, or more like William had moved close to Violet. He couldn't really blame Violet (who could) but Morph felt he had to do something to get Draygo out of his tough spot.

The Bestial Octopus heaved itself forward on two of its tentacles, coming down with as sickly wet thud. Immediately six tentacles lashed out. Three reached for William trying to tie his arms to his torso for the squeeze. Two went for Violet's delicate waste, to tie down her arms as well. The last tentacle went for Violet's angelic face, to keep her from seeing Draygo. Wasn't being multi-armed so much fun?

Violet barely nodded at him and her voice was faint and strained as she answered, "I'm... trying... too heavy... ungh"

Then the tentacles unexpectantly attacked her and she stumbled trying to keep her concentration up. For a moment it seemed to succeed but then the wicked tentacles reached for her face. Totally grossed out by the slimy and disgusting tentacles Violet started to scream, lost her balance and tripped over. Then everything went black.

Alexandra dove from the top of the training room, picking up a considerable ammount of speed before hitting Draygo. Unfortunately for the first time flier, she just glanced off his scales before continuing on. Maybe she'd have better luck after she'd trained that ability further.

Draygo looked at the three 'students' and was very pleased. "Good work guys, we've already got one new power that's shown up, let's see if we can get any more." And with that he pointed his arm at William again and unleashed another ball of green energy.

Come to find out, William wasn't impervious to everything. Being held by the tentacle, he was an easy target for Draygo's ball of energy. It hit him square in his left leg, doing some damage, and hurting a bit, when it hit. Of course, William had taken more damage in a single tackle during football, but it still hurt. He realized that it's possible, now, that he's not invulnerable to anything, just highly resistant to damage.

William, through the strict training afforded him by his years of Martial Arts training, was able to slip free of the grasp of the giant octopus tenticle. His shirt was almost completely removed by the sucker, but he was able to keep it on and fix it before any retaliation could be made.

Well, this was certainly fun, but the desire to pull in Violet in for a closer grapple had to be put down. Morph had other issues and the object here was not to flirt with the pretty girl.

Once more the shapeshifting mutant pulsated and throbbed. He began shrinking ... and growing some fur. As he shrank, he drew closer to William. Four of his tentacles were pulled under his bulk and said bulk began to waddle. His other four tentacles sewed themselves together into two long, thin, hairy arms. The eyes came forward and became more ... simian. Moprh had become a child-sized monkey.

He finished closing with William with great (for a monkey) speed, bounced off Will's chest, rebounding off his head, and hurling himself at Alley!

William staggered a half step back while Alley suddenly had a little extra weight clinging to her side. The Monkey was grinning at her. She suspects its about to grapple with her face!

Finally free from the Giant Squid Samantha(?) got up looking around confused and still very grossed out by what just happened. "What the?"

Violet, are you there? Violet? but she got no answer. It felt just like yesterday when she was KO'd. It looked like Samantha was on her own but what was she supposed to do? She had no powers unlike Violet, she was useless in this fight.

"Help!", was all she could muster to say as she tried to get as much space between herself and the two opponents.

Alexandra flew backwards as fast as she could, streaking across the celing of the training room. A sickening crunch could be heard as she slammed into the wall, monkey first. As she recoiled from the hit, Morph lifelessly slipped off of Alexandra's back and hit the floor, crumpling into a heap. A close inspection would reveal that he was still breathing, but he was definately out for the count.

Draygo surveys the scene. Violet was out, now it was just 'helpless' Samantha, off cowering in a corner, and now his partner, Morph, had been knocked out in a singularly stunning blow by the flying track star. Draygo, not about to be out-done by these two 'greenhorns' decided to show a little spunk himself. With a single powerful pump from his wings, he flew up all the way to the celing, then, pointing a hand at both Alexandra and William, sent two balls of green energy flying out.

When Draygo decided to go all out, he went all out. William and Alexandra both found themselves with a large, green, writhing ball of energy headed towards them, and neither of them were able to move out of the way in time. William, quite literally, didn't know what hit him. The energy ball hit him square in the chest, knocking him back against the wall (next to Samantha), and either the force of the blow or the hitting agianst the wall, knocked William out cold.

Alexandra actually saw the energy ball that hit her, knocking her back against the wall as well, but neither impact had enough force to make her loose conciousness... good thing too as she was in the air up near the ceiling.

Samantha saw the Green blast hit William and screamed in panic, "No!!! William!", she immediately ran to where he slumped unconcsiously to the ground and tried to cover him with her body.

Desperately she tried make him come back to consciousness by gently tapping his face with her hands. "Will, come back... Will! Please!", she was slowly starting to cry.

"This is fight is over! He is hurt!", her voice cracked with fear and worry.

Draygo clapped his hands together, once, making a sound that was so loud the rest of the base could've probably heard it. He then bellows "HALT!". Looking around to make sure he had everybody's attention, he nodded his head and slowly decended to the floor. The weapons lining the wall and William's staff faided away, and everybody else could feel their powers draining, ever so slightly, and once everybody was on the floor, they could feel their aches and pains from the spar fading away.

Within moments of Draygo's nodd, both William and Morph were waking up, and everyone's scrapes and bruises seemed to fade away and heal themselves.

Draygo walked slowly over to where Samantha was hovering over William. His voice was about as soft as could be, coming from a half-man-half-dragon. "Don't worry Samantha, this was a simple spar. No one was in any serious danger; we've taken precautions with this room. Everybody will be fine, you just have to relax and let the wounds fade." With that he moved back to the center of the room and surveyed everybody.

((Everybody heals 1HL per 'turn' until they are fully healed. The power dampening field only takes away about 1/2 of everybody's power... basically just enough to get any residual fighting to stop and get everybody to the floor where they can be healed. This has very little effect on Violet. Any other questions, ask me in the OOC thread))

Alexandra descends to the floor, watching her wounds heal During the course of this she realizes that most of her shirt is gone now. "Dammit I liked that shirt..." Then the realization of what she'd done hit her.

"Holy crap! I was flying...." She looked over to Morph and smiled. She waited for him to wake up and then offered him a hand to get to his feet.

Looking at everyone she smiled. "That was awesome."

Samantha looked seriously worried about William but slowly relaxed once she saw his wounds healing rapidly. She was about to step closer to him and give him some comfort when she suddenly stared at him open eyed. Before she could do anything her body started to change and transformed back into Violet. Will could see that Samantha tried to say "No" but never made it to give her expression voice.

Violet was back and looked seriously pissed. Just as her transformation was complete a small droplet of blood came out of her nose pathing a small rivulet down to her lips.

No!!! Samantha screamed but Violet didn't react.

"This was not funny at all. What the hell are you trying to prove? That we know nothing about our powers and how to fight?", Violet accused Draygo. She turned away from William facing Draygo her eyes flashing angrily at him.

Morph changed back into his 'normal' form, that he had been in before the fight, and got up on his own. He looked decidedly unhappy, though it wasn't apparent whether it was because of what had happened to him or because the fight was over. Without acknowledging anybody, even Draygo, he slinked out of the training room without so much as a word.

Draygo, on the other hand, looked, almost excitedly, at Alexandra and William. Then he turned a glower to Violet. The strength and intensity of Draygo's look actually scared Violet; there was something primal in it that she'd never seen before. The growl in his voice only intensified the effect his look had on Violet. No, young lady,"

And then it was gone. He broke eye contact, and went back to his 'professor' mode. He had started, between the end of the fight and Violet's comment, being very excited, then Violet had seriously brought him down, and now he was restraining himself. His tone and expression were now neutral, showing little, if anything, of how he was feeling. "You are correct that this spar wasn't funny, it was serious. That doesn't mean that learning to use and unleashing your powers can't be fun... at times... This spar wasn't to prove that you know nothing about your powers, you did that well enough at the cafeteria," He said specifically to Violet before going back to talking to everybody. "This spar was simply to help you discover any additional abilities that you may have by envoking a stressful situation. It has shown us that Alexandra over here can fly, something she didn't know before, and something very useful to be able to do. I can tell you from experience in here that William's healing is faster than it should be due to this room alone, meaning he has some kind or accelerated recovery... and you" again focusing on Violet, "You have shown us all something very important. Now, if you'd be so kind as to grace us with your presence, there are a few tests that we need to run to see if you all have any abilities that can't be brought on by a stressful situation, and to better catalogue the abilities that you have. Any questions?"

((Draygo has an auto sux on intimidate vs. Violet. We could roll for it, but he'd have one more sux than Vi, so I didn't bother.

To everyone else, Draygo was very good at directing his ire only at Violet, so Will only caught the emotion, and they both caught the growl in his voice at the beginning and the sarcasm at the end, but he never let anything other than excitement (in the beginning) or 'professor-ness' (the rest of the time) show to the others. Basically he's just aggrivated at Vi's attitude, but is still very happy with Will and Alley Kat.

We'll tie this up and then move to the Nemisis Facility thread for the 'med bay', which is where you'll be going next.))

Alexandra looks to Will. "Yeah. I definitely couldn't have taken Draygo alone..."

In a more diplomatic tone she addresses Violet. "Not in as much, but I believe it was to see where our abilities were and our level of control of them. We all have alot to learn about it, so the excerise wasn't a wasted one as it identified areas we have to work on."

Will processed all this new information,

*Violet and Samantha are at odds? Draygo is having issues with Violet. Alexandra can fly. And I can heal...*

*That's why I feel so good all the time. I'm always 'fresh'. Right. I wasn't mentally exhausted by doing that paper... I can push myself harder.*

*No clue what to do about Violet and Sam. This might be a power thing they need to work out themselves. Still...*

Will asked,

"Violet, why is your nose bleeding?"

********************************************

Draygo, Morph and Accelerate led Will, Violet and Alexandra back to the training room. Once inside, the three teachers split up and set themselves equidistant around the room. Draygo looked around, to make sure that everyone was in their appropriate positions, then looked up and snapped. Once he snapped, the room itself started to change. Between each of the three groups, a wall grew up out of the floor, turning the one training room into three.

Once the walls were all the way up to the celing, each of the rooms changed. Will and Draygo's became a martial arts training room (think Neo/Morpheus in the Matrix). Alexandra and Accelerate's became a track field, but many times longer than any that she'd ever seen before. Violet and Morph's became a New York sidewalk, complete with people and traffic.

To William, Draygo said "Now we can train. You currently have low levels of all your powers. Lets see if we can increase your resistance to damage as well as your martial abilities. We should also be able to work on your psychically charged staff and, if we're lucky, your quick healing.

I'm ready when you are." And with that, he took a half-step back and assumed a fighting stance.

For the first time acting remotely human, Accelerate turns to Alexa and says in a exaggeratedly slow voice,

"Okay. Run now as fast as you can. I'll catch you then we'll see were you are."

Quicker, she adds,

"You don't also think quick do you?"

She the turns around, so that she's facing Alley Cat and has her back to the track. Apparently Accelerate plans to run backwards.

"We are going to start out quick and rough," Williemorph starts. "I want you to copy the dresses and pant suits you see the women wearing. I picked out several fashion magizines for the scene to go through. It is a summer fashion and we have a light breeze coming down from the buildings. Your dresses will have to flow."

He continues to hold her hand.

"Take it easy. Find a dress. Close your mind around it. Make it around you."

Then he looks at her and Williemorph blushes.

"You are wearing real clothes, aren't you. Strip down to bra nad panties - you can grow over those - while I turn around. I promise, no eyes in t he back of my head," and Will grins at her, Williemorph that is.

True to his word, he turns his back on her and waits patiently. If Sam/Violet puts her clothes on the ground, the sidewalk seems to devour them into itself.

Violet was still baffled by Williemorphs perfect copy of William. Just before she could say anything about it he instructed her for the first excersizes which brought her back to her former attitude.

"You got to be kidding me? You want me to do a fashion show for you?"

Violet janked her hand away from him. Then he asked her to strip down to her underwear. Shaking her head she did as he asked knowing that refusing would just make this whole thing even more unbearable.

"Good... I do as you want. What about this one?", she picked a red easly flowing summer dress that had lots of seethrough qualities except for the 'critical' parts. It clung to her like a second skin. The tricky part was making it flow like there was a light breeze in the room. It took her several attempts and real concentration to get it done.

Slowly she was getting the hang of it and with success her mood sheered up again to an infectious level.

Williemorph brightened in response to Violet's good mood.

"See! Now you can have any clothing you desire, or imagine. I suggest some computer 3-D modelling if you want your own designer clothes, but trust me, they will look totally right on you."

"Now it gets harder. First we are going to do a series of dresses and pants ..." he looks at her seriously, "then we will move on to faces. Faces are very tough because you have to move them just right. That will probably be all we can do today, but you'll see. It is enough."

"Tomorrow we can move on to bodies, not faces. You need to learn to walk right for a body type - tougher than you might thank. Remember, subtle clues can give us away. We are all about studying our victims."

"We will move on to faces and bodies for a few days after that - then," he gives a dramatic pause, " you move on to replacing someone. We'll spy out a target, you will study them. You will then retire to a dark place and copy her totally out of memory. That is our total art form. AFter that, you will find copying people out of video and pictures to come much easier, because you will be able to create a total picture in your head. You will know the stride of that woman who is 5'9". You will know how to catch the light with those green eyes. You wll know how she twirls her blonde hair while she is thinking."

"You will know her - or her - or her."

Williemorph gave her a confident grin,

"Now let's go."

Will thought half sourly, *One guess how you work on 'rapid healing' and 'Invulnerability'. Ah well, at least I enjoy this kind of thing. ;)*

Will took a staff off the wall, spun it, and then made it catch fire in mid swing against Draygo.
